Yet another word for "top-down" design.

Sometimes called https://wiki.c2.com/?TracerBullets

Well this seems to highlight that modifying code is harder than creating it, and yet again LLM does the easy thing ok.

Time to invest in non-AI content

Reminds me of https://www.yourworldoftext.com/

How many of your employees have kids and a house?

Agility is implemented as a way to increase productivity. It does it with more detailed scrutiny of what workers do.

Management understood very well that it's taylorism applied to our profession. Taylorism started with measuring every movement of the workers and have their expertise removed from themselves. Daily stand-ups and points kind-of do that, even if there is no magical 4x productivity gain to ever be found, unlike was what won in manufacturing (cf. Braverman). It's a game played against workers, if they self-organized there would be no Agile.

exactly, when you look at the data it looks entirely like noise without any signal, why transmit that in the first place. And why losslessly.

The "trend" was started in 1920. In the HN typical bourgeois stance, people here are of course immune to cheap tricks like .99 price ; and will reject it as "non-science", a very unscientific way to reject something on the basis of who makes the science.

How does it compare to visqol v3?

The actual results today is buying 30B of NVIDIA GPUs to create 3B of revenue.

I agree, and D with the GC lets me prototype quickly. Its type system gets progressively stricter with constraints, for code that survives. I wouldn't want all the type system to apply to prototype code or a nascent program.

Reading Harry Braverman suitably explains a lot of what is going in programming.

I'm using quality 98, but I have only a few encode to ship, so I can live with the encode times :)

Wonder how it compares to guetzli, which is good albeit slow (by Google also!).

Nowadays this is a fringe way to write SIMD code, if you use something like simd-everywhere you will be able to write SIMD code for ARM, x86, RISC-V... who share quite a bit of common ground. It's easy to think we can schedule instructions and spill registers better than compilers but only is some extreme cases. Assembly is also longer to write than intrinsics and harder to read, and doesn't get better over time as the compiler improves.

It can be interesting if you need fast decode on low complexity, and it's an easy to improve format (-20 to -30%). Base QOI isn't that great.

This is what HipremeEngine does for example. https://github.com/MrcSnm/HipremeEngine

I could live with that.

I don't know, Windows 11 came with many things I've wanted for years:

- notepad with tabs

- shell UI with tabs, VT-100 support and ability to replace the shell

- Paint.net with AI

- even Windbg has massively improved

As a D cultist, I don't see why D would be any more viable rather than PureBASIC, microStudio, or Basic4GL if we're talking about kids that want an immediate result in an integrated IDE.

Well UX is not aesthetics. The linked website _has_ good UX.

PureBasic, microStudio, basic4GL... I'd say no OO or complexity need apply.

I haven't seen any of that tbh, I have seen a lot of disrespect come in direction of Walter and him responding in a gracious way actually. Criticism existence means it is allowed and thus is "open".

Rust is sort-of a skin for C++11 though in terms of semantics, while new languages have GC to increase productivity.

> it's cringe seeing key leaders talking down to people, or dismissing people's concerns, or just have this ego about themselves like they know what's best and everyone should shutup and just go along with them.

That's not the case. The job of language designers is to say "no" all the time and Walter is certainly a model with how to speak with users.

The name is unfortunate, there is nothing "closed" about D and OpenD ends up from the start with no rules as to what gets merged.

Notably, REAPER, Studio One (beta) and Bitwig are available on Linux.

Proud to be listed here :) Nice website.

They are, H.265 have "slices" and "tiles" that allow parallel decoding.
